First Orthodontic Exam
Children who visit our office for a complimentary new patient exam receive necessary radiographs, a thorough dental evaluation, and a discussion of orthodontic concerns, plus a treatment plan presentation by Dr. Bailey or Dr. Spruiell regarding the child’s specific needs. It is our priority that all visitors leave feeling thoroughly informed and educated. Additionally, there is no charge for your child’s return visits as we continue to monitor growth and development in the case that treatment is recommended at a later stage. Once your child is ready for orthodontic appliances, we will discuss financial arrangements for treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to begin orthodontics?
Though an orthodontist can enhance a smile at any age, there is an optimal time period to begin treatment. Beginning treatment at this time ensures the greatest benefits in the least amount of time and expense. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that the initial orthodontic evaluation should occur at the first sign of orthodontic problems or no later than age 7. At this early age, orthodontic treatment may not be necessary, but vigilant examination can anticipate the most advantageous time to begin treatment.
What are the benefits of early orthodontic evaluation?
Early evaluation provides both timely detection of problems and greater opportunity for more effective treatment. Prudent intervention guides growth and development, preventing serious problems later. Even when orthodontic intervention is not necessary, an orthodontist can carefully monitor growth and development and begin treatment when it is ideal.
Why is age 7 considered the optimal time for screening?
By the age of 7, the first adult molars come in, establishing the back bite. During this time, an orthodontist can evaluate front-to-back and side-to-side tooth relationships. For example, the arrival of adult incisors can indicate possible overbite, open bite, crowding, or gummy smiles. Timely screening increases the chances for an incredible smile.
What are the advantages of early treatment?
Some of the most direct results of early treatment are creating room for crowded, erupting teeth, creating facial symmetry through influencing jaw growth, reducing the risk of trauma to protruding front teeth, preserving space for unerupted teeth, reducing the need for tooth removal, and reducing treatment time with braces.
Why should malocclusions be treated?
According to studies by the American Association of Orthodontists, untreated malocclusions can result in a variety of problems. Crowded teeth are more difficult to properly brush and floss, which may contribute to tooth decay and/or gum disease. Protruding teeth are more susceptible to accidental chipping. Crossbites can result in unfavorable growth and uneven tooth wear. Open bites can result in tongue-thrusting habits and speech impediments. Ultimately, orthodontics does more than make a pretty smile - it creates a healthier you.
